Five ways I can help
I'm Jack, a Coventry-based software engineer with over 10 years' experience. Everything below is something I build and stay on to look after - pick the one that fits, or get in touch if you're not sure which.
Software Development
I build software that earns its keep: designed with intent, architected to last, and written by someone who takes the craft seriously. From internal tools to customer-facing products, I work across the full stack, and I don't ship anything I'd be embarrassed to put my name on.
- Architecture & system design
- Full-stack engineering
- Performance & reliability
- Ongoing development & support
Shopify & Ecommerce
I build and run Shopify stores for businesses that want more than a template and a handover email. That covers new builds and custom theme development, migrations off WooCommerce, Magento, or a custom cart, and the integrations that connect a store to the rest of the business. I don't disappear once it's live, either. Someone needs to own the store after launch, and that's usually me.
- Store builds & theme development
- Migrations & replatforming
- Integrations & custom apps
- Ongoing management & ownership
App Development
I build mobile applications that respect the platform they run on: fast, native in feel, and designed around how people actually use their phones. One codebase where it makes sense, native where it doesn't. I handle everything from architecture to App Store delivery.
- iOS & Android
- Native performance
- Offline-first architecture
- Store submission & OTA updates
Consultancy
The most expensive technical decisions are the ones made without anyone in the room who's lived with the consequences. I work with founders and engineering teams to review architecture, cut through technical debt, weigh build against buy, and shape roadmaps that won't paint you into a corner. You get my honest read, not a proposal dressed up as advice.
- Architecture review & design
- Technical due diligence
- Build-vs-buy evaluation
- Engineering team advisory
AI Agents & Workflows
AI is all the talk at the moment. I build AI agents and automations that fit into your existing operations: retrieving the right context, acting with guardrails, and handing off to a human when they should. I don't bolt AI onto things for the sake of it. I scope it to where it earns its keep, and I build it to be trusted.
- Retrieval & context pipelines
- Tool-using agents
- Human-in-the-loop design
- Evaluation & monitoring
